There is certainly discussions between liberals regarding religion - However I take it that you're using the American meaning of liberal. As far as I know, here in Portugal the far left party (aka Communist party) openly states positions against religion and theism anytime they are presented with an opportunity, and it is somewhat common - But moderate socialists, aka center left, have differing views, even though most support secularism, the problem is that they have a weird obsession with protecting minorities and traditionally discriminated groups, and this includes protecting Muslims, JW's, and so on
The problem is that the only people with a minimum of political credibility arguing against Islam are the nationalists, the same who probably support kicking out all immigrants, banning blacks and want to favour Catholicism over anything else. This is why I don't manifest my agreement towards Christians that criticize Islam, since they are doing it for the wrong reasons.

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
